I really liked Oli Frey's artwork throughout the mag but especially the front covers. This was one of the things that attracted me to Zzap in the first place and it was really exciting spotting a new issue in W H Smith hidden amongst the rest of the magazines on the shelf.
Commodore games have pretty simplistic graphics so Oli's art acted as a great realisation of a game.
My favourite front covers were issue 15 Leaderboard (my first Zzap!) and issue 20 (Gauntlet).

In the DEF Tribute, someone mentioned that if they were launching a mag today, one of the things they would copy from ZZAP! would be the covers. Gota agree with that 100%. It would be just so distinctive!
